One-Metre Long Cable Removed From Penis By Chinese Doctors

What do you do when you have an itch in your penis? Certainly not what this guy did.

According to news site Kanka News, an unnamed Chinese man inserted a metre-long charging cable into his penis to help ease an itch. On the way out, however, it became tangled in the bladder and the resulting knot caused bleeding as he tried to force it out. He received medical attention after being rushed to hospital.

The itch was a result of a medical condition caused Prostatits. Inflammation in the urethra causes a tingling sensation that goes away after being treated.

Urologist Dr Gao Zhanfeng treated the man at the Dallan Hospital in northeast China. Fortunately Dr Gao managed to remove the five millimetre wide cable using a laser.
